Everyone’s favorite cowboy Jesse Woods from Austin, TX is in Los Angeles this week playing some fantastic shows all over town. Last night, he graced the Bootleg Theater in Echo Park along with La Luz and Pure Bathing Culture. Jesse was accompanied by a band, which he later told me was a new addition to his sets. This is my third time seeing Jesse and the band only made his performance even more cinematic and dreamy. Adding in the low-lit grungy vibe of Bootleg, the setting was perfect for a magical night with heartfelt tunes.

Over the topsy-turvy course of the last two decades Sinéad O’Connor has been known more for her erratic behavior and a myriad of controversies (most recently her online feud with Miley Cyrus) than for her musical contributions. At times it’s easy to forget that there’s a genuine talent behind the troubled persona. Her most recent album How About I Be Me (And You Be You)?, although not on par with her classic first two albums, contains enough emotionally resonant songs to remind us that Sinéad O’Connor is still a vital artist in 2013. And if you needed additional reminding, her powerful show Tuesday night at City Winery would have convinced you.

We love Johnny Marr, the legendary guitarist from The Smiths. He's currently on a Fall tour in the U.S. in support of his album The Messenger. You may recall that he was in Minneapolis earlier this April.Compared to his tour with the Healers, ten years ago, this current 2013 tour features old classic Smiths songs.
